Yard Dimensions

‍

When it comes to scoping a particular design on a confined site, overall yard dimensions are helpful to understand the overall footprint of a design.

‍

Onefarm can provide more dimensions where required to aid with deciding on a design.

‍

For larger Commercial Yards, a site visit is recommended. Using a drone, we take an aerial shot of your site for our design team to superimpose different yard designs to scale.

Including Loading Ramp Area - 29m x 28m

Excluding Loading Ramp Area - 26m x 28m

Yard Capacity

‍

When contemplating yard capacity, it is crucial to contemplate Holding Capacity and Working Capacity separately.

‍

It's comparable to a kitchen where eight people can stand, but only two people can work efficiently.

‍

If there were eight people standing in the kitchen, no one would be able to work.

‍

The same principle applies to cattle in yards. When handling cattle, they require ample space for turning and movement.

Based on your average adult cattle (450kg), we use 1.5m2 per head for Holding Capacity, or 2.2m2 as a guide for working capacity. This differs based on whether you're running Cows & Calves, Calves alone, Bulls etc.

Holding Capacity - 273

‍

Working Capacity - 186
